Innovation Showcase: AMPC to bring inaugural innovation conference to Melbourne in 2022
In October 2022, AMPC will deliver its inaugural Innovation Showcase, bringing together red meat processors and industry participants from across Australia to experience new innovative ideas and technologies from AMPC’s research and development providers and hear and learn from world-class speakers, listen in to panel sessions, and participate in various workshops.
The three-day event will be held from Tuesday 11 October to Thursday 13 October at the Melbourne Showgrounds and will explore the theme of “The future of red meat processing” which highlights the importance of adopting innovative solutions to build a stronger and more sustainable red meat processing industry.
AMPC Chief Executive Officer Chris Taylor said the Innovation Showcase will be an immersive and interactive event that will give red meat processors the opportunity to see R&D solutions up close so that they can think about the adoption and extension of these technologies in their own businesses.
“The AMPC Innovation Showcase will be a great opportunity for industry to come together to explore the latest R&D and innovation, to hear from experts in other industries, to listen in to panel discussions on advanced manufacturing, sustainability and people and culture. There will even be a place where you can make your own meat product and learn all about how to value-add.”
“There will be a tactile demonstration area simulating the design of a red meat processing plant, plenary sessions with world-class speakers and ample time across the event for networking”.
A drawcard for processors will be a series of innovation workshops aimed at generating ideas that have significant opportunities for the processing sector and for cross-fertilising ideas and experiences from innovation managers within AMPC and from processing companies.
More information and registration details for the Innovation Showcase will be shared in the coming weeks. If you have any questions about the event, please email communications@ampc.com.au
